What is MERN?

MERN is a popular JavaScript stack used for building full-stack web applications. It consists of MongoDB (database), Express.js (backend framework), React.js (frontend library), and Node.js (JavaScript runtime environment). MERN allows developers to use JavaScript for both the client-side and server-side, promoting code reuse and developer efficiency. It's commonly used for developing single-page applications (SPAs) and dynamic web applications.
